not really -- it has legal repercussions to quote prices in publicly
available material, _and_ several companies that advertise on the Net and
elsewhere would rather you call them based on product interest rather
than price.
e.g., I still (occasionally) order pizza at special offer prices because
they forgot to include important legal phrases like "prices subject to
change without notice" and "offer valid through ..." on flyers that they
left _millions_ of at the University of Oslo campus in the fall of 1988.
